Power and comfort on the trail.

Okay, you still have to pedal yourself and decide on which is the nicest route to take. But then the new STEVENS Maverick takes over adding a large helping of both, power and comfort. The former is provided by the mighty Bosch Performance CX motor from Bosch, the latter by an upright seating position and sensitive suspension components from SR Suntour.

Boost-Standard Fork

What is right for the rear wheel is even more important at the front wheel - because steering precision matters. This is why STEVENS uses suspension forks and hubs with extra wide axle spacing for all its fullies, as well as for the trail rocket Sonora and the alloy-hardtails Colorado and Sentiero. These 110mm of axle spacing are called "Boost" or "Plus" and stand for lots of added lateral stiffness plus space for extra wide studded tires.

Boost Rear Axle Spacing

Since model year 2016 the rear stays of all STEVENS fullies adhere to the new "Boost" or "Plus" standard with 148 mm axle spacing. And there are good reasons for that. Rear wheel stiffness increases by 20 % which is especially beneficial in large 29" wheels. And there is more space for voluminous studded tires to give you more control and fun an the trail.

Rearshock Development

Diffferent purposes in different terrain require different ride properties. This is why every fully rear triangle receives a specific setup from STEVENS' engineers to meet the respective bike's requirement for optimum performance. Firm for minimum power loss in the marathon with lots of comfort for long distance riding with a linear characteristic curve and mind-soothing reserves for hard hits.

500 Wh Battery

This will decide success or failure of e-mobility. That's why STEVENS uses batteries with a huge 500 Watt-hour capacity in all its top-notch pedelecs for up to 215 km of range (according to the manufacturer, please refer to the Bosch range calculator for more exact results). This is possible even without a weight penalty: Compared to the old PowerPack 400, the new Bosch PowerPack 500 is just 100 grams heavier. This huge "fuel tank" is our premier recommendation for pedelec riders who don't shy away from the hilliest of itineraries.

27.5” Plus Tires

Even the most sophisticated wheel and suspension technology can't work without the right tires - because it's them to make first contact with rocks, roots and loose gravel. And when they are of the new 27.5" x 3" format and ridden with appropriately low pressure, this contact becomes an intimate one. Meaning: the tire's studs dig into every tiny crevice on the trail and therefore ensure maximum grip in corners and lots of traction. Thus improving braking, steering, acceleration. And already standard in all new all-mountain e-MTBs from STEVENS.

Hydroforming

Using water or oil pressure aluminium tubes are transformed from their original round shape into their ideal shape determined by STEVENS engineers to perfectly withstand any load without any weight penalty. This means better steering precision on the trail and higher longevity.

Tapered Steerer / Tapered Headtube

Fork shaft (or steerer tube) and head tube are tapered, meaning their diameter increases from top to bottom resulting in a conical shape. The diameter needs to be bigger at the bottom since this is where higher stress is applied - especially when the bike has a higher total weight due to luggage or an e-drive and battery. Also tapered steerers feature a smoother force transfer (like forces caused by hard braking) to the downtube than forks with a continuous 1 1/8" diameter.

Triple Butted, Double Butted

Meaning a frame tube has three or two different wall thicknesses along its length. Triple butted (TB) is the usual technology with STEVENS high-quality frames. Tubes with different wall thicknesses are optimally adjusted to certain ways of manufacturing or to withstand specific loads. Where the highest loads occur or where tubes are welded, walls are the thickest. Butted tubes allow frame weight to be lower by several hundred grams.

QR15 Front Thru-Axle

"15" stands for the diameter in millimeters, "QR" for quick release. Combined they are the most useful method to fix the front wheel to the (suspension) fork. With convincing advantages: high stiffness, precise positioning of the brake disc and super-easy handling. So STEVENS specs almost all its mountain bikes and even high-quality trekking bikes, cross bikes and pedelecs with a thru-axle. Additionally, especially with 29" MTBs axle spacing is increased from 100 to 110 mm which makes the design even stiffer.

Instructions on intended use

The permissible overall weight (pedelec incl. luggage and rider) should not exceed 140 kg (308.6 lbs). Under certain circumstances the permissible maximum weight can be further limited by the component manufacturers’ recommendations for use.

For full suspension STEVENS E-mountain bikes and carbon bikes trailers are not permitted.

STEVENS E-cross-country, E-marathon and E-touring mountain bikes are suitable for off-road use, but not for blocked terrain, tricks, stair riding etc. as well as training and competitive use in the categories freeride, dirt, downhill. STEVENS bikes of this category can be used on surfaces permitted for bikes of the categories 1 and 3 and are in addition suitable for rough and unpaved terrains. Sporadic jumps are also included in the field of use of these STEVENS bikes. But particularly inexperienced riders doing jumps may land inappropriately, thus increasing the acting forces significantly which may result in damage and injuries. We recommend that you train your skills in a riding technique course. If necessary, ask your STEVENS dealer to inspect your STEVENS bike at shorter intervals than according to the service and maintenance schedule.

Due to their design and fittings, STEVENS E-mountain bikes of the category 5 E are not always suitable for being used on public roads. If you want to use them on public roads, these bikes must be fitted with the prescribed equipment. Observe the traffic rules when riding on public roads. For more information read chapter “Legal Requirements for Riding on Public Roads” in your comprehensive STEVENS user manual on the enclosed CD-ROM.

Danger:

STEVENS bikes of the category 5 E are not suitable for use on blocked terrain, for high and long jumps, slides, stair riding, stoppies, wheelies, tricks etc.!
